Drawing on 25 years of concept designConcept designThe stage before a system is built in which its goals, functions and overall structure are decided — the big picture of what to build and how.See all terms experience and technology, Systems Engineering Inc. offers five service formats built around SELab.AI, our concept design platform based on AI and SE technologySE technologyTechnology for systematically managing complex systems from requirements through design, development, verification and operation.See all terms. Through them we lead industrial innovation with concept design models for each industry, and contribute to worldwide consensus with concept design models of global issues.

  1. 1.Concept designConcept designThe stage before a system is built in which its goals, functions and overall structure are decided — the big picture of what to build and how.See all terms consulting by industry

    Concept design consulting that reflects the domain characteristics of each industry. Most of a system’s overall performance, development time and cost, and life-cycle operating cost are decided at the concept design stage. We support this decisive stage with 25 years of accumulated methodology and the SELab.AI automation engine.

    System architecture design

    System architecture design and optimization is the core activity with the greatest influence on a system’s overall performance, development time and cost, and life-cycle operating cost. We research and develop methodologies and application approaches for effectively developing architectures that conform to the relevant international standards (ISO/IEC/IEEE 42010, 42020, 42030, the ISO/IEC 19540 series, the ISO/IEC 18384 series and others).

    Requirements engineering

    Successful system development depends on systematically eliciting and analyzing stakeholder needs and requirements and turning them into verifiable requirements. We research and develop methodologies and application approaches for effective concept design — securing elicitation, analysis, refinement, management and traceability of requirements, and linking requirements to the system architecture.

    Model-based technology roadmapping

    We focus on researching and providing methodologies for building systematic technology roadmaps based on engineering system models, and for assessing the value of new technologies.

    We develop and deliver the concept design model of the system our client needs, built on SELab.AI. We develop systems engineering models — requirements, functional and physical architectures — and apply industry-specific concept design reference modelsReference modelA model that captures proven structures and knowledge in advance so they can be reused in system design.See all terms to build and deliver a concept design model tailored to the client. We also develop mission-driven enterprise architecture models that comply with UAF, DoDAF and MND-AF, delivered in a form that is consistently traceable from mission and operational needs down to system requirements. This mission-driven approach is not limited to defense. The UAF framework — placing an organization’s strategy and goals at the top as the mission and unfolding them into capabilities, operational scenarios, services and systems — applies equally to every industry that handles large complex systems: manufacturing, energy and plant, mobility, public infrastructure. We connect enterprise architecture to system concept design through reference models and view frameworks adapted to each industry. Our track record in developing architectures for large complex defense systems — military satellite communications, the obstacle-breaching tank, TICN — and our experience developing two reference models under a Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy national program are the foundation.

    Four courses: systems thinkingSystems thinkingA way of thinking that looks at a problem not as a single element but from the perspective of the whole, interconnected system.See all terms, concept design, MBSEMBSEA method that represents a system’s structure, functions and relationships as a digital model and designs and verifies around that model.See all terms, and applied AI. We run both tailored training for companies and institutions and open courses, using SELab.AI as the training tool so that what you learn can be practiced immediately.

    For defense, public-sector and enterprise clients where security matters, we sell the complete SELab.AI platform — including an on-premise LLM — deployed inside the client’s own infrastructure, so AI concept design automation runs entirely within the organization with no external connection.

How to get started

One point of contact for all five services.
Even if you haven’t decided which format fits, leave an inquiry and we will work it out together.

  1. Step 1 — Inquiry

    Consulting, model development, training, subscription and on-premiseOn-premiseInstalling and operating a system in a company’s own server environment rather than in the cloud.See all terms deployment — all inquiries are handled through the single channel below.

  2. Step 2 — Consultation

    We look at the problem you want to solve and your organization’s environment, and decide together which of the five services fits.

  3. Step 3 — Proposal

    We provide a proposal covering scope, schedule, deliverables and cost.

  4. Step 4 — Kick-off

    We launch the project or issue platform accounts according to the agreed scope.
